Five Second Project “Countdown”

Here is my entry for the Five Second Project "Countdown"

I modeled the bombs in Cinema 4D and composited them in After Effects. The clouds are made with Particular and the lens flares of course is Optical Flares.

This was a fun project for me as I have never modeled anything in Cinema before.

Inspired by in game loading screens from Green Day: Rock Band

C4D 11.5 + Attractor

Created in C4D 11.5 using the new Mograph Rigid Body tag.

I am still amazed at how easy these are to setup and how quick they are to render.

C4D Quick Tip: Enhanced OpenGL

Have you ever been working on a complex scene that was causing your scene to slow down and not play back in real time.
If you are using a gfx card that supports OpenGL it can be used to help accelerate your scene. To do this go to Display -> Enhanched OpenGL

The GFX card can be used to render the transparency, shadows, post effects and noise channels when you are working in your scene.
